The thing is, Putin’s story does make sense. We know that ISIS sells its oil to Turkey. Convoys go into Turkey. If anyone doubts it, please look at a map and tell me where someone in the ISIS part of Syria takes their oil.
And if we accept that Turks are in the stolen oil scam, we know that ISIS is not the enemy of Turkey. Borne out again by the fact the Turkey only attacks Kurds that bother ISIS.
Next, we know that the USAF just sent a squadron of F-15C’s to Turkey. This is only used for Air Defense, so its a safe bet that US forces are fully wired into the Air Defense of Turkey. They really don’t need an excuse as a NATO partner.
Last, its been announced by us and Russia that we get their mission routes to avoid blue on blue.
So to review. ISIS sells to Turkey. Turkey is angry Russia is interdicting that. We are involved with Turkey and had the Russian routes. The Russian bomber was ambushed. Obama came right out and said this is because they were supporting Assad.
This all dovetails in with us flipping sides and partnering with Al Qeida after Libya.
Against that, we have Erdogan and Obama all over the map. It was protecting Turkey from a 17 second incursion. Then Turkey said they had no idea it was Russian. Then Obama said it was because of Russia being for Assad. Erdogan is saying nobody in Turkey buys the oil. And he just arrested 2 journalists who broke a story of police escorted Turk trucks taking weapons to ISIS. Last, the people who shot down the rescue chopper used a TOW we just gave them and trained them on.
Putin is telling the truth... and we are the bad guys over there. Literally doing what the USSR did in the 60s and 70s.

I totally agree, the real backstabbing traitor in all this is the sharia loving muzzie in the White Hut.

Yep. What Obama has wrought.
NATO sure looked like a fabulous idea, but only if it were completely independent and superior to the utterly corrupt UN.
NATO sure looked like a fabulous idea, but only if the USA somehow managed to never elevate an IslamoMarxist child into a position that allows him to use it as a tool to further his Islamic beliefs.
NATO sure looked like a fabulous idea, but only if the members carried their weight. Instead, the USA taxpayers and soldiers ( aside from "show" sorties and photo-op worthy joint actions ) are on the perpetual hook while the Euroweenies downsized and used this offset to double down on Socialism.
So we have the spectacle of NATO, designed to stopped the Communists from over-running Europe literally enabling Europe to voluntarily turn itself Socialist by freeing up their own cash saved from defense.
And all it took was for our pathetic homo-in-chief and his cabal of leftists to find and exploit the tools of freedom for their own purposes - destroying everything.
Anyone who can singlehandedly make the Ruskies into the good guys is the Anti-Christ. QED.
